About the show
Where high performers share their stories of the defining moments that shaped them.
Each week, I sit down with high-level performers from Apex, North Carolina and beyond — athletes, entrepreneurs, creatives, and changemakers — to uncover the defining moments that shaped their journey.
We dive into their early life, the catalyst that sparked their success, the habits and non-negotiables that fuel their drive, and how they overcome adversity with grit and purpose. You'll walk away with powerful insights and motivation to elevate your own path.
For me, podcasts have played a tremendously beneficial role in my own learning, reflection, and pursuits over the years. I created Action Over Obstacles — Stories of Peak Performance, Growth & Resilience to not only highlight peak performers' accomplishments, but to give everyone a glimpse into how guests overcome their own personal obstacles, limiting beliefs, understand how they reset when they get off track and consistently move forward on their paths to improvement.
What each episode explores
Early life and the origin of their drive

My goal is that Action Over Obstacles becomes a source of ignition and fuel to drive you forward in your own pursuit of greatness.
